The GNU plotutils package contains software for both programmers
and technical users. Its centerpiece is libplot, a powerful C/C++
function library for exporting 2-D vector graphics in many file
formats, both vector and raster. It can also do vector graphics
animations.
libplot is device-independent in the sense that its API
(application programming interface) does not depend on the type of
graphics file to be exported.
Besides libplot, the package contains command-line programs for
plotting scientific data. Many of them use libplot to export
graphics.
Other ./configure options that you may want to add (provided you install
the required fonts):
--enable-ps-fonts-in-pcl enable use of PS fonts in PCL and HP-GL/2 output
--enable-lj-fonts-in-ps enable use of LaserJet fonts in PS output
--enable-lj-fonts-in-x enable use of LaserJet fonts on X displays
This package can be useful for managing GNU Metafile plots, used by
default in applications such as ng-spice.
